WASECA, MN. Cinch Connectivity Solutions, a Bel group company, has announced the addition of a 45° connector to the SMA Series. This type of connector is commonly used in test and measurement, semiconductor-test-fixture, PC-board-characterization, and networking applications.
Cinch Connectivity Solutions’ 45° PCB mount SMA connector is designed to operate up to 18 GHz, with a maximum VSWR of 1.30 up to a frequency of 12 GHz and a VSWR of 1.50 for 12 GHz to 18 GHz frequencies. 45° connectors are commonly used for mid-board launch in tight enclosures and board to board applications, where height and width restrictions do not allow for vertical mounting or end-launch connectors. The connector is fabricated in gold-plated beryllium copper.
The Johnson products are available through distributors Digi-Key and Mouser.
